White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said that Americans who are looking to use hydroxychloroquine should first consult with a doctor, coming after President Donald Trump announced he was taking the anti-malarial drug along with zinc to protect himself from the CCP virus.

“Any use of hydroxychloroquine has to be in consultation with your doctor. You have to have a prescription. That’s the way it must be done,” McEnany told “Fox & Friends” on Tuesday.
